Spring has come and gone, the dog days of summer are upon us and still my life seems to sway against my sitting down and writing. I know you all have been through this. Been busy with an array of things lately. Day job demands are greater and grabbing overtime(these days we all need the extra dollars, don't we?). Implicated an exercise program into my agenda for stress relief as well brain food and alertness. Family life is always at the heart of matters, so...
Speaking of exercise, has anyone grabbed onto Zumba? I am loving it! I love to dance so this program is right up my alley:) Like most people, I tend to become bored with diet and exercise programs but this one is fun. I also change it up which keeps me interested. I add biking, walking, etc. So far, it's working well for me.
Gonna head out and do some wicked weeding in a bit. Whoa! Even my gardening has slacked. Funny how we cycle through life. Hot and heavy, cool off, then move full circle again.
Writing? It's coming in its on good time. Festering, I am, conniving, scheming, projects in hand.

Quickie:) Clearing one's mind and stress level.
No! not that kind of quickie LOL Though it would have the same results...
Been busy with some organizational things this week. Also, so as not to continue to expand while I studiously sit in front of this laptop night after night, I've begun an exercise regiment.
Yay!
I have taken up a two and a half mile walk in the nearby park after work each evening. Wow! it hotter than Hell but it feels great! And you know what? My head is clearer, I'm less stressed and sleeping a whole lot better!
For a couple years now, I've come home from the day job, turned on the computer, got dinner ready and sat in front of the computer for the rest of the evening--day after day, everyday. Well, as you can well imagine it takes a toll on the body, mental being, and stress levels. I actually had begun to hate my computer because I felt chained to it in a manner that I don't take any time for myself and other activities--in short, a life!
Well, that is all changing and so is the ten extra pounds I'm carrying around in the mid section. Yikes! that is the thing that most bothers me. Anyway, just thought I'd drop in and tell you about my newfound relaxation/exercise discovery.
I suggest everyone consider doing this if you don't already. It feels so good!
